Nomenclature
P = Total pressure in lbs/ft2 acting at a given level of the tank under the
particular condition of loading.
= P1 + P g
P1 = Pressure in lbs/ft2 resulting from the liquid head at the level under
consideration in the tank.
Pg = Gas pressure in lbs/ft2 above the surface of the liquid. Thwe maximum
gas pressure(not exceeding 15 lbs/ft 2) is the nominal pressure rating
of the tank. Pg is the positive except in computation used to investigate
the ability of the tank to withstand a partial vacuum; in such
computations its value is negative.
T1 = Meridional unit force in lbs/inch of latitudinal arc, in the wall of the tank
at the level of the tank under consideration.
T1 is positive when in tension.
T2 = Latitudinal unit force in lbs/in of maridional arc, in the wall of the tank
under consideration. T2 is positive when in tension.(in cylinderical
side walls the latitudinal unit forces are circumfrential unit forces)
R2 = Length in inch of the normal to the tank wall at the level under
consideration measured from the wall of the tank to the axis of the
revolution. R2 is always positive except as provided in 5.10.2.6
W = Total weight in lbs of that portion of the tank and its contents(either
above the level under consideration, as in figure 5-4 panel b, or
below it, as in figure 5-4 panel a) that is treated as a free body on the
computations for that level. Strictly speaking the total weight would
include the weight of all metal, gas and liquid in the portion of the
tank treated as described; however the gas weight is negligible and
the metal weight may be negligible compared with the liquid weight.
W shall be given the same sign as P when it acts in the same
direction as the pressure on the horizontal face of the free body;
it shall be given the opposite sign when it acts in the opposite
direction.
At = Cross section area in in2 of the side walls, roof or bottom of the tank
at the level under consideration.
E = Joint efficiency

T1' = Rs/2(P+W/At')
= 0 lbf/in
T2' = Rs x (P+W/At') - T1

3) Shell Design
Shell calculations are based on different assumed thicknesses, here we will perform
the specimen calculations for 1st shell course and the others are given in the tabulated
form which are mentioned below.
T2 = Rc x P equation 11 of 5.10.2.5
= 1,915 lbs/inch
Now As Per 5.10.3.2
If T1 and T2 both are +ve, then
T = Max.(T1 and T2)
= 1,915 lbs/inch
The same procedure is adopted while confirming the thickness during hydrotest
T2 = Rc x P
T2 = Rc x P equation 11 of 5.10.2.5
-5.71 lbs/inch
Now As Per 5.10.3.5
t19 - C.A

Back calculating the external pressure limited by the actual provided thickness
Now; As per 5.10.3.5.a
as the maximum thickness is obtained by equation 18, therefore back
calculating the external pressure limited by tprov.
